Astrojax Aqua “Glow”
MSRP: $22.95
Age: 8 and up
Category: General Toys

ToyDirectory Product ID#: 16820

The Aqua Glow version glows in the dark and is UV reactive providing an amazing light show under a black light. Each liquid-filled ball features a soft outer shell that serves as a flexible casing for the liquid, allowing for an easy, comfortable grip. Rather than a central metal weight such as standard Astrojax, the dynamics of the Aqua's fluid flows lower the rotational inertia of the balls to provide smooth orbits and prevent tangling of the string around the center ball. The string length is adjustable and stringbuds at each end of the string allow for quick and easy tuning. Launch date: November 26, 2007.

This Astrojax swinging ball toy features three balls on a string with the center ball free to slide. Each ball has super-bright LEDs that are impressive even in broad daylight.

Although Active People´s Astrojax comes in many colors and designs, by far the coolest one to have swinging in the air, off walls or off your body is the bright, fluorescent Saturn model (aptly named for its encircled ring). When creating more complex tricks than with your average yo-yo, fret not; each Astrojax comes with a trick sheet and an Astrojax Docking Station if you need to walk away from it for a while. The Astrojax is equipped with three colored LED lights that can be switched from “Continuous” mode to “Disco.” Nothing is more groovy for kids 8 years old and up than three disco balls on a string for $14.95 12/9/2004 [Add to my Inquiry Basket][?]
